Related Services – Related Services are designed to assist special education students in meeting goals and objectives established by the IEP or 504 team. For a student to qualify to receive a Related Service, they must either have a qualifying special education eligibility or a 504-plan. Related services should never be added to an IEP or 504 plan prior to completion of the referral process.
Special Education Eligible Categories
Deaf/Hard of Hearing
Visually Impaired
Stand-Alone Eligibility Service – NEGA RESA provides services in two areas of eligibility which students can be served solely by the RESA educational team. These low incidence areas of eligibility include Deaf/Hard of Hearing and Visually Impaired. Referral for these services should typically be conducted in conjunction with a full evaluation (initial or reevaluation). If the IEP team suspects difficulties with vision or hearing, these professionals should be contacted, and a referral completed to allow them to fully participate as part of the IEP team. It is very helpful when RESA professionals are invited to participate in team meetings with students who will be transitioning from Babies Can’t Wait or Georgia PINES with vision or hearing difficulties.
